The ventriloquist then approached the
bear and said:
What country do you come from, my

The bear replied, in a clear voice:

To WHOM 1T May CONCERN:
We, the undersigned citizens of
Forsyth and adjoining counties,
having each purchased of the gentle
manly Statesmen of the Wrought
Iron Range Co. of ST. Louis, Mo.
one of their celebrated Home Com
fort Wrought Iron Cooking Rang
| es, take great pleasure in recon-
mending them to our friends and
neighbors. After thorough test
we pronounce them success, and
i find them to he az good in every
particular as represented by the
. Statesmen. They are far more du-
) rable-bake more uniformly with
less fuel--less danger as to fire
| than any cook stove we have ever
seen or used. At first we thought
them little high priced, but now
would not take twice the price paid
for them and be without it. Besides
its good baking qualities, it affords
the greatest abundance of hot wat
Ell, which is great convenience.
Buy one and you will not regret the
purchase.

The Kaiser and His Servants.

One Of the finest traits in the character
of the Emperor of Germany is his remem.
brance Of his old and etred servants. One
of them, an old man who has been for
years recipient Of a pension from the
Emperor's private treasury, lives near
Bromberg, West Russia. His daughters
husband was not prosperous, but threat
ened with bankruptcy. There was SEEM
ingly no help. But the old man wrote to
the Emperor telling him the unfortunate
circumstances and begging for loan for
his son-in-law. The Emperor sent the
money to the latter, and said in his letter:
"For the children Of my faithful oil d serv-
ant have no loan. Take the money as
present, and God may prosper it in your
hands,"

cotton than in 1886. The Georgia crop
is very much spotted. On the other
hand, the Carolinas will come up to
the late general estimates OF ex-
coed them. Alabama has not
turned out any thing like
what was very recently expected.
In the Lower Mississippi valley the
yield, while so much below the prom
ises of the early fruiting season. is yet
above last season. but the gain has
been all in Mississippi. The picking
season has proved very favorable on
the whole, and the crop has been gath
cred unusually early. AS foreshad-
owed, however, in last months report,
the top crop has proved failure near
ly everywhere, and little was made in
October. The worms cut short the
prospect in many sections. adding to
the damage by drought. Light frosts
in all the States and killing frosts over
a very considerable part of the belt
have been reported during the past
month. 1t estimates the production
by States in bales as follows:

Monthly Cotton Crop Report.

The regular monthly cotton crop re-
port for the Memphis district. which
embraces West Tci nessee, North Mis-
sissippi, North Arkansas and North
Alabama, says: A review of the past
season shows that, up to July, the pros
poets for very large yield within the
district was never more promising. A
drought, however, set in that month,
and was prolonged until great damage
had been sustained by the growing
plant. It's severity was felt in all the
four States. but Tennessee and Arkan-
sas suffered most. The outlook which
was so bright in July. gave way to
gloomy prospects in August, which
were prounced in September. Since
that period the plant has matured
with great rapidity, due both to dry
weather and early season. The favor.
able weather, which has prevailed
during October, has enabled the plant.
er to gather his crop in good condition
and the prospective yield of the dis.
trict, which in our September re-
port indicated 1913 per cent. less
than last year, has been revised and
is now given at IA Ia per cent. less.
This improvement is but the natural
outcome of the favorable conditions
which have prevailed since our last re.
port. The estimates then given were
furnished by planters who had seen
their crops whitening from drought
and in their reports gave a gloomy
account of the prospects. The i'm
provement noted is chiefly in Missis-
sippi and Alabama, where the yield
has been much larger than previously
estimated. In all the four States,
however, the yield falls short of that
of last year. Picking has progressed
rapidly, and up TO October 20 full 70
per cent. of the crop had been gath
cred. In many localities picking will
be finished by November Is. and it is
only in the bottoms that gathering the
crop will be continued up to the mid
die of December. Frosts have fallen
at periods since October 9, but only
slight damage is reported. The staple
has been marketed freely. Low wa.
ter, however, has somewhat interfered
with shipments, and much of the cot.
ton picked and ginned yet remains on
plantations awaiting more favorable
condition of navigation.

SOUTHERN AGRICULTURAL.
Dogs VS.. Sheep.

The destruction Of sheep by dogs, al
ways outrageously prevalent, has
been exceptionally SO this fall, at least
in this section. But what are we 60
ing to do about it9 1t seems that we
can do nothing. The sheep raisers OF
the State have tried time and again,
but to no purpose, to get some law en-
acted and enforced looking to an eff
fective protection of sheep against the
ravages of dogs. The fact is. the dog
question seems to be more than the
Legislature can handle,
There are great many people who
own dogs for their imagined useful
ness But as it seems we can not have
sheep and dogs, the question arises,
Which are the more useful, sheep or
dogs? The dog-owncr answers: my
dog is more useful to me than your
sheep are to me-" And as there are
ten dog-owners to one sheep-owner,
the dogs have it.
But in addition to those who own
dogs for their imaginary usefulness
there is a class of sentimentalists who
are ever ready to defend the dog.
They will write Or speak all kinds OF
sentimental "balderdash, about the
dogs nobleness. his constancy, affec-
ton and fidelity as something beauti-
full, and even to be emulatcd by man.
But just call one of these fellows a
dog, or even a little puppy, and he
will protest to you in such way as to
show you he will eagerly admit that
he has been lying about the dog rath-
err than be mistaken for the subject of
his eulogy. And yet such people, for
the sake of INDUCING this incon-
sistent and sham sentiment are
willing to pay an increased price
for mutton and clothing, and incur q
fair chance for hydrophobia. Truly
man is fearfully and wonderfully
made.
Thus it is plainly seen why the Leg
slature has not dealt effectively with
the dog question. The dog has become
a political factor of no mean import
ance. The successful candidate is as
shy OF and as equiyocal concerning
the dog question as he is that of pro-
hibition. No man with political aspira-
tons can afford to be the owner of
sheep, for such are necessarily COM
peeled to kill dogs, and every
time you kill q dog you kill a
vote; nay, often several votes per dog.
For l have known many a dog, dead
dog at that, to WELD q year after a
dozen or more votes in public cleo
ton. So. if a candidate expects to be
successful he must first desert the sheep
for the dogs. For these reasons the
Legislature is unable to grapple with
the dog question. the sheep having
one representative where the dog has
ten. How can the sheep interest pros
per under ''caninearchy?' For such
it is, as far as the sheep are concerned.

THE SAVAGE WAY.
How an Indian Treats an Injury - Old
Time Methods,

Time Methods.
The savage is emphatically the child Of
nature. He lives close to nature, his only
education is gained in natures school.
When the Indian receives an injury, he
does not seek cure in mineral poisons, but
binds on the simple leaf, administers the
herbal tea, and, with natures aid, comes
natural recovery.
Our rugged ancestors, who pierced the
wilderness, built their uncouth but COM

serious cases they sent; for old SADDLE

killed as cured.
Latter day society has wandered too far
away from nature, in every way, for it's own
good. Our grandfathers and grandmoth-
ers lived wholesomer, purer, better, health
Ter, more natural lives than we do. Their
minds were not filled with noxious isms,
nor their bodies saturated with poisonous
drugs.
Is it not time to make change, to return
to the simple vegetable preparations of our
grandmothers, which contained the power
and potency of nature as remedial agents,
and in all the ordinary ailments were effica-
cious, at least harmless
The proprietors of Warmers Log Cabin
Remedies have thought so, and have put on
the market q number of these pure veg

secured after patient searching into the
annals of the past, so that those who want
them need not be without them.
